Phaseolus vulgaris

A rare climbing bean from Mexico, these runner beans grow to well over 2 m tall, bear prolifically and look great in the garden.

Unusually, this bean was used as a dye as well as a food. The beans are best used as a dry bean and performs well in slow cooked meals or as a shelly bean side. Well suited to planting in the "Three Sisters Method".


Standard packet contains approx. 25 seeds

Petite packet contains approx. 10 seeds



Using Beanflo-Rhizobium bacteria when planting your bean seed is the most cost effective way of putting nitrogen fixing bacteria into your soil, creating healthier soil for a more productive harvest.
